The day I can retire.....August 30th, 2012....the big Five0!
In all likelihood I will realistically retire in December 2012 but no later than that because I need to wait a calendar year for any retirement COLA's....so if my official date is too close to the end of the year by the time it is processed I screw myself for almost two years....and I don't see the need for any of that!
.....tick tick!
